Sisters In Crime

Born in Schenectady, New York, Gerald Eugene Stano's given name at birth was Paul Zeininger. His biological mother neglected him to such an extent that when she gave him up for adoption at six months old, county doctors declared him unadoptable. They said he was functioning at "an animalistic level" - even eating his own feces to survive.Stano was found guilty of 9 murders, though he confessed to dozens more. He received eight life sentences and one death sentence, the latter of which was carried out by electric chair on March 23, 1998 in Florida State Prison.
